A. How You Can Safeguard Your Privacy
While we're always working hard to keep your personal information safe, you must play an important role as well. Take care to prevent unauthorized persons from learning any of your GameMine account information. You are solely responsible for safeguarding your e-mail received from GameMine, username, and password. To prevent unauthorized use of your account, be sure to change your password often, and keep it in a safe place.
B. GameMine and Children Under 13
GameMine.com requires that you must be 18 years or older to create a GameMine account and become a member. If you are under 18, you may use GameMine.com only with the involvement of a parent or guardian by and through the GameMine.com Parental Controls Program. We do not consciously gather private information such as name and email address from children 13 years old and under. We identify the significance of protecting the privacy of children and promote parents to monitor and observe their children's use of online behavior on a regular basis.
C. E-mail Privacy
When you join GameMine, you are automatically subscribed to our newsletters, which may include special offers and promotional materials from GameMine or select GameMine partners. If you wish to opt out of receiving such offers and promotions, please log-in to "Your Account" and update your "E-mail Subscriptions". If you decide to opt out, you will still receive the e-mail confirmations on Game Shipped and Game Received e-mail.
Under the GameMine referral program, you can help spread the word about Gamemine.com by providing us with your friends' names and e-mail addresses. In return, we provide your friends with the 2nd month free GameMine monthly memberships. Names and e-mail addresses submitted to us for this program will be used only to send these free trial offers. GameMine does not share referral program names or e-mail addresses with any third parties.
D. Why GameMine Collects Information
All of the personal information we collect is used to make GameMine.com more enjoyable and more useful for our members.
When you join GameMine, we ask you for certain personally identifying information, including your full name, e-mail address, postal address, telephone number, and billing information (such as a credit card number). We use this personally identifying information to create your GameMine account, process your orders, and communicate with you about the status of your orders. We will use your phone number only for customer service-related calls, never for sales or marketing purposes. If you decide not to present personal information when prompted, you will limit the services we can give you.
E. Types of Information GameMine Collects
There are a number of kinds of information we accumulate from guests to our website.
They consist of:
1) Information You Give Us
When you first become a GameMine member, we ask you to give us your name, address, phone number, credit card number, and other personally identifying information so that we can process and ship your orders. We may also use this information for such purposes as answering your requests, communicating order information to you, and improving our service
(2) Automatic Information.
Like many web sites, Gamemine.com sets "cookies" on your computer. Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transmit to your computer's hard drive through your web browser, allowing us to automatically recognize you when you return to our site. They help us to match the games you've chosen to rent or buy with your individual account, and to personalize the Gamemine.com web site for you. If cookies are not enabled on your web browser, you will not be able to use the GameMine.com site or the GameMine service. The "help" menu on most web browsers will tell you how to enable cookies
(3) Order and Billing History
Your order and billing history are also tracked automatically from the beginning of your GameMine membership. This allows you to log-in to "Your Account" and see the list of games, membership plans, or upgrades you've purchased from us
F. Security
GameMine uses a secure server to encrypt all of your personal information. The secure server employs 128 bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption, the most advanced encryption method available today. The SSL works for all information provided that results in a financial transaction either by membership or for purchase.
To protect your information from unauthorized access or use, we use only the most advanced technology and security features for the Gamemine.com site. We will continue to update and enhance our security practices as new technology becomes available. We have also implemented strict security guidelines for our employees, partners, and vendors.
While we make every effort to ensure the security of your personal information, no data transmission can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Therefore, please be aware that when you submit information to us, you do so at your own risk.
G. Sharing of Information
Except as described below, GameMine does not sell or share your personally identifying information to third parties without:
(1) Notifying you of our intent to share such information.
(2) Giving you a chance to prevent your information from being shared
We use outside companies, agents, and contractors to perform some important GameMine tasks, such as processing credit card transactions and delivering your orders. In the course of doing so, these third parties can come into contact with some of your personally identifying information. However, we only give them access to the information they need in order to actually perform their tasks, and they are bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy - that is, they must treat your personal information the same way we do.
If we think that their products or services will interest our members, we may also partner with outside companies to send promotional announcements to some members. If you want to be excluded from these promotional mailings, you may opt out by logging in to "Your Account" and updating your "E-mail Subscriptions."
We may, at our discretion, provide our prospective partners, advertisers, and other third parties with aggregate data about members and visitors to the Gamemine.com site. However, such data is anonymous, and we do not disclose personally identifying information about specific users
